Midweek Snippets

Alright, everyone. We’ve made it halfway through the week. With just a bit more work, we can make it once more to the weekend. I’m confident that we’ll be able to do it. But before then, we’ll need to refuel with some bite-sized gaming stories. Good thing that’s just what’s on the menu right now.

Want to get in on the ground-floor of a new game and play for free but don’t know how? Want to contribute to development and get your name in the credits? Now is your chance! Tricorn Games is looking to recruit playtesters for Flipped Off! A tactical card game where you play a plotting Mastermind using Pirates, Ninjas, and Robots to destroy your enemies and control the city.

Flipped Off! is in its final development stages and Tricorn Games wants playtesters to help put the final polishing touches on it.

Players can strengthen their roster with a new dual-color Planeswalker, Nahiri, the Harbinger, as she is now available as a special offer before she is added to the current selection of Planeswalkers in the Vault.

The new card set also brings a new set of mechanics that enhances the game and helps defeat a wide range of enemies.

As Purgatory draw close to the kickstarter in October, they have created their first video which talks in more detail about one of the starting factions in the Soul Train which comes with the starting gaming box.

Tabletop Miniature Solutions’ Undying Dynasties Indiegogo has been funded and is now burning through its stretch goals. The Polish company has turned to a crowd funding effort to bring to life a new range of ancient Egyptian undead miniatures to support the 9th Age project.

In addition to new lords, heroes, skeletal infantry and skeletal cavalry for the Tomb King-ish army, TMS is looking to add a number of new creatures and war beasts as well.

Now in its final hours on Kickstarter, Vampire Hunters funded in just 14 minutes and has unlocked 30 stretch goals. The Slayer pledge includes the Vampire Hunters core game, the East European Priests Hunter pack and the From Blood to Dust expansion. There are 18 Hunt scenarios, with 3 campaigns, played over 10 double-sided map tiles. Also includes 98 highly detailed plastic miniatures.

Vampire Hunters is a fully co-operative, highly thematic, miniature-based board game for 1-4 players, fully expandable to 5-6 players. A second game mode and optional rules can be combined to enhance and customize your experience! Play co-operatively to defeat the Vampire Lord or competitively to rate your skills and become the best Hunter. You can even play on as a Vampire, if your Hunter gets turned.

The Night is Darker expansion adds gameplay for 5-6 players, 18 miniatures including new Hunters, new Desmodus Vampires, 2 double sided map tiles with new Crypt and Looted Clinic locations, tokens, cards, 6 new Hunts and a new Campaign.

Last year we ran a Kickstarter to produce a set of imaginative dice, the Warrior Set, and thanks to 2000+ supporters they are now a reality! Now it’s time to see if together we can summon a series of special dice for spell-casters! The Wizard Set is once again the classic 7-piece set of RPG dice (plus a special Kickstarter bonus – see below), and this time we are also going for fancy and fittingly magical looking materials.

We’ll kick off the campaign by offering the most popular color from our polyhero.com poll – Lapis Lazuli with Glittering Gold, and stretch towards more fun materials.

This is just a quick message to let you know that we had to postpone the Blackwater Gulch Kickstarter by a couple of weeks. We wanted to wait until we could have some master copies of the miniatures done so we can show them off in the campaign, rather than only 3D renders. The new launch date is going to be Monday, August 29th!

In addition to the new miniatures, the main focus of the new campaign is actually gong to be to get our Second Edition rules printed in a high quality box set. This box will feature a full color 120+ page hardback rulebook, a deck of loot cards, custom dice and a variety of tokens that you can use to keep track of objectives or wounds or other things during the game. We put together a little mockup below so you can see how it will look.
